I'm absolutely thrilled with my Michelin Primacy Alpin PA3s. I have 4 on my Camry. If I were buying winter tires for my 300D I would get the same thing. Very smooth and quiet on dry pavement, handle...

Looking forward to pictures. I'm also curious what engine RPMs are at 70mph, and how does it compare with the automatic. (Mine isn't running, so I don't know this yet.)

Black with tan was a popular late 70's color combo. I've seen a few 116s with it and it looks awesome!

Billowing black smoke sounds like it's getting good fuel flow.

I bet it's on the intake side. Either restricted intake at some point, or a malfunctioning EDS or EGR system.

I would definitely...

The list seems to be more about Milestones than "The Best". Having lived with 1978 and 1980 300SD's and 1983 and 1984 300SD's, I'd have to take the position that the latter 126 cars were better.
